New? matte black trunk emblem

CantComplain · 05-19-2018, 11:33 PM

Hey Guys-

Looked to see if this was posted and didn't see it anywhere. Company called Carbon Genetics has an M2 trunk badge in matte black for $30 including shipping. It's on Amazon (link or just search Carbon Genetics M2). Looks to be decent quality but it's hard to tell. I'd pull the trigger but they don't seem to have gloss black.

I'm into my car $60k but can't pull the trigger on the $105 IND one....

The amazon knock off looks like the M stripe colors are off. Would have to do a compare in person or pics if someone has it. Maybe somebody can contact the seller for a comparison pic beside the factory one.

I am sure the iND would be a direct match like all their products

Color does seem off as spotted above, I bought the iND one because I'd rather do it right the first time than have to buy it anyway because of a knock off. I'd just spend the extra $80 and get the iND (because that's what I did).

The "2" is also completely wrong.

Wait for the m2 competition badge. Maybe it will be like $50. That's what I'm hoping
